While I played organized sports in high school including dance, cheerleading, field hockey, and lacrosse, I completely fell off the band wagon in college. I rarely went to the gym and definitely ate my fair share of cheesy bread, colliders, and Jimmy John’s subs throughout those four years.
I was well aware of my weight and physical stamina when I started my career, especially because while people joke about the Freshman 15, apparently the Consulting 20 is a pretty guaranteed event as well. With all of the travel and team meals that I saw in my future, I figured that I need to start taking an active part in my health and well-being.
I signed up for a few races back in early 2009 and started training for them. Since then, I have run 8 races (my longest being a 10 miler in Philadelphia) and have somewhere found a true passion for nutrition and fitness in myself and other people. I typically go to the gym about 5 days a week and have really started to enjoy running and pilates (!!).
One thing that has really helped me is finding various interesting workouts from fellow bloggers online. I can sync up, log on, and send myself a great treadmill workout to keep me entertained and sweating the whole time. Therefore, I am going to document my workouts on this website and hopefully be able to help out any newbies or experts find a little skip in their [treadmill] step.
Enjoy! And please send me any great workouts that you might have - always looking for new things!
